"Who are you..." The palace goddess whose leg was injured looked timid.
She couldn't recognize who Murong Qingshuang was for a moment, but judging from her dress, she was definitely not a palace maid.
"The slaves are the maids of Qian Palace." The other maid was cautious and said in a very respectful voice, "The slaves are just taking her back. Nong Yue's leg is injured."
"Sister..." Nong Yue bit her lips, her eyes dim with tears.
Both men looked as if they had been greatly wronged.[
Murong Qingshuang felt strange, "Why don't you find someone to carry her out? How can you walk if your foot is injured?"
The palace maid who was called elder sister whispered, "Girl, I don't know who you are, but...but girl, it's better not to worry about these things."
"What is this nonsense?"
Nong Yue immediately said, "Sister, I have no intention of blaming the girl, but... there are some things that cannot be helped. Please pretend that you have never seen the slaves before, so that you can save yourself a little trouble."
Murong Qingshuang looked clear and curious, "What's the trouble? I'm just curious for a moment. Your legs are inconvenient, why can't you find a few people to help?"
The two people looked at each other and said nothing.
"Okay, I won't force anyone to do anything. Just help her back quickly."
The palace maid nodded, very grateful, "Thank you, miss."
She was even more curious. She just asked them to go back. What was there to thank her for?
From the flashing words and expressions of the two palace maids, she could tell that there was indeed something unspeakable. She glanced at the side of the palace wall where they came out. The palace lanterns were brightly lit, and she didn't know what was going on.
Nong Yue wanted to say something, but another palace maid winked and she shut up.
She supported Nong Yue and walked farther away step by step.
"Dongyun!" came a high-pitched voice.
In the corridor, a father-in-law wearing an exquisite robe and holding a whisk in his hand walked slowly over.
He looks to be in his forties, in good spirits, and has a rosy complexion. However, his hair and eyebrows are completely white, which makes him look a bit weird.
"This is..." He came closer and looked at Murong Qingshuang, "Who is this?"
Murong Qingshuang didn't recognize this father-in-law, so she looked at him and said nothing.
